#165 How to be more evidence-informed with Peps Mcrea

Peps McCrea makes his third appearance on the podcast, this time
to take a deep dive into how we can be more evidence-informed as
teachers. We discuss his process for identifying and summarising
key research finds, and then discuss some key pieces of research
and their implication for the classroom. I learned so much from
this one. For links to the resources discussed in the episode and
videos of our conversation please visit the episode show-notes
